Random Question Thread X: Fucking 99 Level Cap, How Does it Work?

[rog]

Blm can do it. I'm sure you can find a video on youtube of it. Sch can do it just the same.

Rdm can melee it down.

[TheMysteriousX]

Rdm can melee it down.

I doubt this given the fact they have regen, and can Charm/Regen to Full.

Only if you're retarded and don't stagger dots. Rdm can definitely outdd it's regen.

I hope this isn't a horribly nab-ass question and I'm just forgetting something silly.. but unless you're /blm.. is staggering Bio2/Poison2 going to stick long enough to stop Regen if you're charmed and it goes unclaimed? I couldn't imagine meleeing it as /blm so I'd assume you're /nin and only have Bio/Poison.

I've never actually meleed UFOs so maybe I'm overestimating their strength and you can straight-tank it /blm. That and I don't know how long you stay charmed. So maybe poison/bio can last long enough! /shrug

[Draylo]

RDM gets Bio III and Poison II, why would you need sub BLM?

[rog]

You obviously need /nin. Casting poison/bio one min apart, gives you at the very least one minute to uncharm, and usually more. It's charm doesn't last that long.

I stated that's what we got, I was just curious on timing on the charm. That and I don't have Bio 3 actually. I went full out Slow/Para.

Thanks, what I needed to know.

Since MMM mazes are WotG zones, should I be using Sigil or Signet?

[xIndustrialxAngelx]

I'm curious as to what kind of gear setup would be needed for Namas on SAM, pre aftermath.

I assume with aftermath up, can drop major pieces of RACC, and replace with Ranged Attk?

[fusionx]

If i were to attach a "light based Skillchain dmg + #%" Evolith onto a bow, would the bonus occur if WSing with a main handed weapon?

ex. Bow has the evolith, SCing with a Great Katana

[Nightfyre]

If it works like weaponskill augments then no, but I don't think I've seen any data on skillchain evoliths.

Aftermath procures before the weaponskill. Nama's should always have Racc boost; just as Katien always has STP+7.

[Byrthnoth]

Aftermath affects the WS it hits on iirc, so you don't have to have a pre-aftermath set for it on SAM, nor do you have to worry about keeping it up like Amano.

My impression is that you don't have to worry about RAcc at all with Yoichi/Namas. The ranger in my LS left his set on FFXIAH as:
Soboro/Sword/Yoichi/Kabura
Wyvern+1/Gorget/Triumph/Bushi
K.Osode/Seiryu's/Triumph/Rajas
Amemet +1/Bucaneer's/Usu/Rutters

He probably had the right idea, though that wasn't his final gearset. Wyvern +1 got swapped with Ganbhod's, Rutters and Usu for Hachiryu, and maybe he swapped the Gorget for Hope torque, I forget.

Thanks so much for the reply :D it really clears up things for me!

I also wonder about this every time I do MMM. Anyone know for sure?

Thanks.

[Darkmagi]

Should be easy to test, just see if sigil refresh/regen work.

[arshesney]

IIRC it's signet, pretty sure it is buried somewhere in the MMM thread

[Karbuncle]

Its a Signet zone, Kupowers do not work but Healing with Signet gives you no TP loss and the HHP Boost.

Im unsure if -both- work but im positive Signet does.

[Cream Soda]

i might actually go dick around with this now just to see wtf is goin on. anyways, if i take brutal out of the equation, you're saying i won't see any attacks after a kick right?

No, I'm saying you will. DA > Kick > Stone proc

In that order. If you kick and stone proc in the same attack round. You will kick first, and then stone proc.

Let's say we take all DA gear and subjobs out of the equation, leave faiths and kick attacks.

You get two stone procs this attack round. Your attack round will look like

Punch, punch, kick, punch, punch

[Hosom]

Does Souleater work with ranged weaponskills?
